Wild grass and flowers by the Vermilion Bird Bridge, and the sunset at the mouth of Wuyi Alley. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people.
Standing on the side of the Vermilion Bird Bridge, recalling Liu Yuxi's "Wuyi Lane", looking at the dilapidated streets and alleys in the distance, the scene of the King and Xie era has long been gone, the former Gaomen mansion, the fragrant car BMW, the eaves of the painting during the day are like clouds, and the prosperity of the lights like rain at night, I can only imagine the desolation of history, the impermanence of the world, the white clouds and dogs of wealth and glory, and the loneliness behind the fame and disgrace, only to use time to pay tribute.
After seeing the decay, Lu Yuxuan turned around and walked towards prosperity.
After crossing the Vermilion Bird Bridge to the northeast, not far away is the Confucius Temple, the pedestrians on the street are like weaving, all kinds of snacks are varied, the cries of selling are endless, a lively scene, the wine shops and brothels on the side of the road are lined up, and the drunken Xiaolou is built here.
Zuixiao Tower is a group of houses built of wood, the main body is composed of two parts of the front building and the back building, it has been built for several decades, covers a wide area, among which the wine shop, the tea house, the brothel are integrated, it is the place where the rich people flock to it, and it is one of the prestigious "gold caves" on both sides of the Qinhuai River.
Lu Yuxuan glanced at the sky, the time was close to the unitary hour, walked into the drunken Xiao Tower, reported his name, and asked for a seat on the second floor.
When Lu Yuxuan entered the lobby on the first floor, the noise was significantly reduced, and many martial arts people with swords looked at him, Lu Yuxuan looked around, didn't care, and turned around and came to the second floor.
The layout on the second floor is relatively elegant, and the temperament of the guests is also more elegant, less fierce, different from the past, there are obviously more people in the rivers and lakes who come to Zuixiaolou to eat tea and drink alcohol today than in the past, Lu Yuxuan looked around, and recognized a few faces that he had seen when he was chasing Yan Ze yesterday, around these faces, there were also martial arts people, and after smiling slightly, Lu Yuxuan came to the elegant seat he had just booked.
"See, he is the Evil Sect Lu Yuxuan, who defeated the 'Jade Prince' Xiao Chen yesterday with only three moves. ”
"Seeing that he is young, I can't imagine that he has such strength. ”
"He came to see the people of the Poison Sect today to discuss the matter of the war, hehe, if it weren't for my brother and me, would you be able to see this kind of major event in the rivers and lakes? ”
This private seat is semi-open, located by the window, and the other three sides are surrounded by screens, which can block the sight of other guests, Lu Yuxuan couldn't help but laugh dumbly after hearing everyone's talk, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, sat there quietly, and looked out the window.
At tea time, the guy led a boy in brocade clothes to the elegant seat, this person is about twenty years old, handsome, not inferior to the 'jade boy' Xiao Chen.
"Lu Yuxuan?" asked the young man in brocade.
"Exactly," Lu Yuxuan replied as he looked at the person who came.
"I'm Pang Yi, the young sect master of the Poison Sect, the person you are looking for. The young man in brocade casually rewarded the guy with a piece of broken silver, and after the guy got out of the seat and closed the screen, he introduced to Lu Yuxuan, and when he spoke, he accentuated the words 'Young Sect Master', and stared at Lu Yuxuan with a smile.
The meaning in the words is that my identity is the young sect master, below one person, above ten thousand, what is your identity?
"Oh, disrespectful, in Xia Lu Yuxuan, he is the most proud disciple of Yao Lao. Lu Yuxuan pretended to be surprised, and accentuated the words "Yao Lao" and "the most proud", and returned the tribute to Pang Yi.
Raise the name of Yao Lao, which means that last time the Poison Sect made an appointment with the Medicine Sect, we are the victors, what qualifications do you have to put on a proud posture as a descendant of a loser? The three words "most proud" reflect your qualifications, and even Yao Lao admires them very much, and has high hopes, what is the gap between you and your "Young Sect Master"?
"Rules and conditions. Pang Yu pondered for a moment and asked.
"There are no rules to the rules, each according to his ability. The condition is that if I win, you will let the people of Yin Mansion go and keep them safe. Lu Yuxuan said the conditions that he had already thought of.
"Is this appointment your decision, or is it Yao Lao's decision?" Pang Yi asked.
"My decision. Lu Yuxuan frowned and replied.
He only ordered the arrest of the people of the Yin Mansion in recent days, and they have not come back yet, but Lu Yuxuan's condition is to let him go, and he only arrived in Jinling yesterday, indicating that the people of the Yin Mansion have been captured by his own people, and he rushed to Jinling in advance to make an appointment with himself, this decision was made by himself, not Yao Lao, indicating that his strength has not yet met the requirements of Yao Lao, and the purpose of hastily making an appointment with himself is just to save people, looking at his age of seventeen or eighteen, two or three years shorter than his own cultivation time, even if his talent is good, how high can his skill beWhat's more, his qualifications are also extraordinary.
"Hahaha, although I don't know who you want to save, I appreciate your courage!" After Pang Yi figured out the key, his solemn expression gradually eased, "How about betraying the Medicine Sect and coming over to help me?" ”
"No way. Lu Yuxuan replied categorically.
"Hehe, I agree with your conditions, but I want to change the rules a little. Pang Yi stared at Lu Yuxuan relaxedly.
"Speak," Lu Yuxuan said.
"Life and death, my only condition. Pang Yi stared at Lu Yuxuan, and said word by word, since it can't be used by me, what if the talent is good?
"Do you think you're going to eat me? Lu Yuxuan pursed his lips disdainfully.
"I hope your kung fu will be as hard as your mouth. Pang Yi said.
"The decisive battle was scheduled for three days later, at noon. Lu Yuxuan set the time.
"The location is at Phoenix Terrace. Pang Yi set the location.
"Before the decisive battle, you must ensure the safety of the people of the Yin Mansion. ”
"Yes"
After the two were done deliberating, they went their separate ways.
The young sect master of the Poison Sect and the old heir of the medicine will fight in Phoenix Terrace three days later, this news was heard by the martial arts people who rushed to watch, and quickly spread in the Jinling rivers and lakes, although they did not hear the whole process of the conversation between the two and the conditions proposed, but this did not prevent them from publicizing the matter, as the people who are about to experience the big things that will happen on the rivers and lakes, and even some people are still proud, and they will talk about it when they meet people, so that they can not only improve their popularity, but also increase their sense of existence in the rivers and lakes, since there are benefits, and there is no danger, why not?
After leaving the drunken tower, Lu Yuxuan quietly returned to his residence.
"Lu Yuxuan, Master asked you to go to the main hall to meet the guests. A young man about the same age as Lu Yuxuan stood outside the door and shouted.
"Yo, isn't this a 'dead face'? I haven't seen you for many days, how are you doing lately?" The young man standing outside the door is called Zhen Xiuwen, who is Pang Yu's closed disciple, he doesn't smile on weekdays, and always has a cold expression, when he was a child studying art in the same sect, he had a conflict with Lu Yuxuan and a few people, and joined another group, and he didn't eat Lu Yuxuan's losses, and was nicknamed "Dead Face" by them.
"Where do you get all this nonsense? Zhen Xiuwen didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Yuxuan, he couldn't do the martial arts in front of him, he was aggrieved from childhood to adulthood, and the name that appeared the most in his history of blood and tears was this annoying thing.
"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few years, you've lost your temper, haven't you? Regarding Zhen Xiuwen's ignorance of himself, Lu Yuxuan expressed strong dissatisfaction.
"Give Lao Tzu a Le, or Lao Tzu will put a smile on your face by himself. Lu Yuxuan stopped in front of Zhen Xiuwen and raised his fist.
"It's been a lot of growth, but I still have a lot of hard work. Lu Yuxuan patted the dust on his body and walked towards the main hall, every time he met a dead person's face, it was a thing that made him happy.
"Your grandma's. Zhen Xiuwen slowly got up from the ground, grinning as he crawled, and the grinning action did make his somewhat dull face look much more vivid.
